Best I Could


Like a river and a rolling boulder
I slow for no one
My home is on the ground

Pocket full of dirt and holes
And your words
They follow me around

I loved you the best I could
The best I could my love

I been worried ‘cause it’s getting colder
The street is nowhere
For sleeping on your own

I got some people won’t survive the snow
And you’ll find them frozen
Too high to cry for help

I loved you the best I could
The best I could my love

Somebody said, “You’re taking space and air, 

You’re a wasted failure
You may as well give in”

My thoughts are moving like a breaking glacier
I failed to save you
It’s hell inside my head

I loved you the best I could
The best I could my love

A hundred candles hanging in the darkness
I’m spinning toward them
You said to seek the light

I see your face in every twisted dream 

And you kiss my cheek and
You never say goodbye

I loved you the best I could
The best I could my love

I loved you the best I could
But I guess I couldn’t keep up
